  His social skills won’t win friends. He doesn't care. But if in trouble, the ruggedly handsome (confident to the degree of near arrogance) Jake Shepherd is the man to have on your side. A former FBI agent, the intuitive private investigator with a Yale law degree is a quarter Cherokee. He can shoot the wings off a mosquito at 100 yards, read a suspect like a restaurant menu, and catch the eye of a lady. 
  In Capitol Murder, Jake meets Atlanta attorney Scarlett Kavanaugh when the husband (a U.S. Senator) of her estranged twin is found dead. Authorities suspect the wife was involved. She needs help proving her claimed innocence. A savvy Harvard law graduate, Scarlett is a formidable match for Jake with her poise, intelligence, sharp tongue, and independence. Thrown together in the quest for who was responsible for the death of the man with many enemies, Jake and Scarlett often trade witty banter. However, Scarlett's respect for Jake's skill grows—especially in the face of danger. 
  As Jake investigates, Scarlett is at his side throughout. While they begin to work as a team, neither admits the relationship is anything more than strictly professional.

  In this action-packed caper novel, a long-retired cop gets wrapped up with a girl on the run
  		 
  Long-retired cop Fitch Henry Haut is terminally ill and living out his final years alone. As he sits in his favorite diner enjoying the meatloaf special, he watches as a young girl steps in and spots two rough-looking men at the counter. When they see her, she runs off and they give chase.
  		 
  His cop instincts kick in and Fitch follows, catching up with them in the parking lot. As the two men try to force her into their vehicle, Fitch manages to get the upper hand, and he and the girl take off in his broken-down Winnebago.
  		 
  The girl is Wren Jones, a runaway from an abusive foster home. Earlier that day she overheard the two men going on about a casino robbery they just committed, and this was the second time she got away from them that day. Fitch realizes the men will come hunting for them again, and that the ailing rig he’s driving won’t be hard to spot. A bond forms as Fitch and Wren struggle to escape out of town, both aware that time is not on their side.
